CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Just like we had small choices in how we did each part of the workout today, we have choices in nearly everything that we do in our daily life. Oftentimes, however, we choose to complain and worry about the things that we have absolutely no control over. In Matthew 6, it asks who can add one inch to his stature by worrying? No one! Let’s stop complaining and worrying about those things over which we have no control and instead focus on the things we can change each day.

Eat better than that

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I just installed some cabinets in my basement. I ordered online from Home Depot, and when they came in I started having second thoughts. They looked pretty flimsy, and wobbled pretty bad. However, once I screwed the six units together, they became much more solid. Then, after I anchored them to the wall studs and put a countertop on them, they were rock solid. As a PAX, we support one another, and strenghten one another as we lock shields. But our ultimate support comes from the anchor in Christ.
MOLESKIN:
I didn’t eat well or hydrate last night, and I really felt it this morning. By the end of the beatdown I could barely mosey across the grinder. Not a good feeling! Nutrition and Hydration!

Black swan is a Crazy unexpected disastrous event

What are we:

1. Fragile

2. resilient and survive

3. anti-fragile , be durable and thrive 

Thriving  in the chaos of the unpredictable. 

MOLESKIN:
Let’s strive to be anti fragile ! That does not mean we go beat our chests and become tough guys, so to speak. It means we should prepare / practice to thrive in daily life. Could be a Q you have coming up or that business proposal or family life , etc…  the point is that if we are prepared and fit to thrive in our situation , what ever it may be, we will be able to adapt in a positive way to anything unpredictable.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Recently I have been thinking about relationships, both with my wife and with my friends. I once heard some of the best relationship advice I think is out there. “Don’t keep score on favors, just do nice things for each other because you care about them.” My wife is in graduate school currently and she gets tired and exhausted by the end of the day like most of us. Even when we both are sitting on the couch, if she asked if I can get up and get her something, I don’t hesitate. I don’t really know what it is like to be in graduate school but I do know it takes a toll on her. Even tho I am tired too, I care about her enough to jump off the couch and get what she asked. I don’t keep count on how many times this happens because I don’t do it to have her do it for me later. I know she cares about be that when I am having a bad day, she will do the same.

Just do nice things for others because you care about them and because you are a nice person. Don’t do things for others so they will do things for you later. DON’T KEEP SCORE!! IT’S NOT A GAME TO WIN!!
MOLESKIN:
Keep Moses in your prayers on Saturday that him and his soon to be wife have a beautiful, stress-free wedding
